NICE!

Nothing worse than knowing you have a new car and not being able to drive it.

Cheers Sammy, thanx for posting them, just got in from work so its been a long day .....both cars look great, be even better when they are polished up.

Having the windows tinted on mine as well, although just a light smoke...didn't want the full on gangster effect....but decided to hang on to the gold wheels for the mo, will get the crystal titaniums fitted when I get it PPP'd.

I've got a busy few days ahead of me, but have some pics of the STi demo on the mountain near Crickhowell, if I email them to you tomorrow morning, could you post them for me please ?...at the mo, dont have the knowledge or the time to find out about posting them myself.

Cheers m8
Gareth

Nice pics mates

After 3 weeks of nerve testing, I just picked up my car this afternoon: It's a black mica STi 8, with a huuuge scoop on the bonnet !

It is so big that I'm pretty sure I'll still see it when I'll close my eyes tonight

But anyway, I already love it

Waiting anxiously for mine to turn up.
Keep bein told March, but can't get a firm date!!!!

Love the look of both cars, but I think the black does look cooler.

I ummed and arred about what colour to have and went for the blue, only to change to black at a later time - so glad I did.

Enjoy the cars

Thumbs down

This scoop is so high that today, mine caught a small bird around 200kph on the highway

Hopefully (for me, but not for the bird), the splitter saved the I/C... but please don't ask for more details.
I wish I'll never have to do that dirty mortuary job once again.

To all STi8 mates, watch out: kamikase are not necessary on the japanese side
